College Football Player Rex Ruppert always wanted to be a professional wrestler. When he was unsuccessful, he invested his way into becoming a promoter. After forcing a buyout of his partners and taking control of the New York Market, he transformed his promotion into a national business. With larger-than-life outlandish and cartoonish characters, his Wild Wrestling Federation became an international phenomenon and TV ratings hit. Rex's college classmate, Harley Harrison, started off as a ringside photographer and manager. He worked his way up to Vice President of the WWF's rival promotion, World Champions of Wrestling in Atlanta.
Both men become bitter business rivals who fight over big-name talent, TV ratings, arena exclusivity, and the majority share of the Pay-Per-View market.
This book is a satirical look at the surreal, bizarre, intense, humorous, and complex world of the Professional Wrestling Industry. The characters and incidents are inspired and loosely based on actual individuals and events.
